Table 2 of the original publication contained errors. The corrected values (highlighted in bold type face in the updated Table below) show that the newly reported DehaloR^2 consortium and the cells of Dehalococcoides contained therein, displayed transformation activities comparable to those of the “Unnamed” culture in Table 2, whereas transformation activities tabulated for the SDC-9 consortium were ~3-4 times higher than those of DehaloR^2. Correction of the values does not change any of the interpretations provided in the study.
